How we use your personal data

When we contact you, we generally do so for one of the following purposes:

  • To invite you to participate in research

  • To confirm the details of research you have agreed to take part in

  • To conduct research with you

  • To validate answers/views you gave in a recent research we conducted (if you have consented to us doing so)

  • To update and to ensure that our records of your personal data are correct (applicable to those consenting to being part of an ongoing community or panel)

  • To notify you if you have won a prize draw that we administered or to provide you with an incentive for taking part.

  • Combined with the responses/views/opinions of others who participated in the same research and reported back anonymously to the client that commissioned the study

  • Used on an aggregated basis to determine which groups of people think certain things more than others

  • Used to administer and operate prize draws/incentives
